Seriously, who of these KA's would willingly rat on 2 football players, especially those of "rock star" caliber as the Kem-Che brothers? That just wouldn't happen.

It's also worth noting that the so-called "investigation" was literally the campus police merely asking members of the KA house "what happened" and if they "saw who threw the punches". All they had to reply with was "no, sir, we didn't see anything". At that point, there really isn't an incentive for telling the truth, and there are no consequences for keeping your mouth shut. And as far as I've read, the victims were not interviewed by the police. How does that happen?
No insight into this particular investigation, but I've seen cops "investigate" fights before when I worked as a bartender.

Typically they would show up after the people who punched somebody up had left, ask some questions to the friends of the victim, and then come ask us if we had seen anything. About the only thing we would be able to offer is something like "he was wearing a black shirt and jeans and was with a couple of other people." I never got the impression that cops actually actively looked for the guys.

But this was at a bar in Jackson, and JPD probably isn't the best indicator of policing standards.
